Сводный обзор: 
The Nauru Energy Road Map (NERM) 2014 – 2020 builds upon the energy sector development agenda laid out in the National Sustainable Development Strategy 2005 -2025 (revised 2009) and the National Energy Policy Framework (NEPF) of 2009. The aim of the Road Map is to enable the achievement of Nauru’s overall vision of “A future where individual, community, business and government partnerships contribute to a sustainable quality of life for all Nauruans”. The Energy Road Map lays out strategies and activities in six thematic areas of power, petroleum, renewable energy, demand side energy efficiency, transport and institutional strengthening and capacity building to achieve the above outcomes and targets. As for energy access, the objective is set to achieve 24/7 grid electricity supply with minimal interruptions.
